Nado44 Posted October 10, 2015 #2 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Diet tonic water is hit or miss on RC's ships. Two suggestions. First. Bring your question to the special needs department if the diet tonic is a medical requirement. Email is special_needs@rccl.com - Second. Bring/carry on your own. Good luck!

Firefighterhoop Posted October 10, 2015 #3 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I use diet sprite (Sprite zero) as a mixer. They always have that. I really haven't seen diet tonic around, but it may only pulled out when requested?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markandallan Posted October 10, 2015 Author #4 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I did not think you could bring your own drinks on board apart from the two bottles of wine per room and water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ourusualbeach Posted October 10, 2015 #5 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I did not think you could bring your own drinks on board apart from the two bottles of wine per room and water. Officially water and soda are not allowed to be brought on board however this is rarely enforced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethelfleda Posted October 10, 2015 #6 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Do you know if that's something you can get with the soda package, or is it only available in cans and used as a mixer by the bar staff? Thank you for the info! I use diet sprite (Sprite zero) as a mixer. They always have that. I really haven't seen diet tonic around, but it may only pulled out when requested??

Clarea Posted October 10, 2015 #7 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Do you know if that's something you can get with the soda package, or is it only available in cans and used as a mixer by the bar staff? Thank you for the info! If your ship has a Freestyle machine, you can get DIet Sprite with as part of one of the unlimited beverage packages. Without a Freestyle machine, you would have to purchase cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethelfleda Posted October 10, 2015 #8 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Ah well, that's what I figured. Darn! (We'll be on the Liberty at the beginning of November, no Freestyle machines there!) Thanks for the info :-) If your ship has a Freestyle machine, you can get DIet Sprite with as part of one of the unlimited beverage packages.

Diplomacy Posted October 10, 2015 #9 Share Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) If your ship has a Freestyle machine, you can get DIet Sprite with as part of one of the unlimited beverage packages. Without a Freestyle machine, you would have to purchase cans. Officially. Unofficially, canned sodas that aren't offered from the guns, especially mixers like sprite, tonic water or ginger ale (but I've gotten free Dr. Pepper, too) are disseminated based on how friendly your bartender is, as part of the soda package. It really, really never hurts to ask(or offer a bribe? Yes, I said it). Edited October 10, 2015 by Diplomacy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rudeney Posted October 10, 2015 #10 Share Posted October 10, 2015 LOL! I thought I was the only person who drank gin and diet tonic! I have never been able to find it anywhere in any bar, so the only time I get to enjoy it is when I buy it by the bottle for consumption at home.

Gin & Diet Tonic with lime is my summer pool drink. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzyluvs2cruise Posted October 10, 2015 #12 Share Posted October 10, 2015 We enjoy Diet Tonic at home too and have been unsuccessful in finding it on a RCI ship. Sprite Zero doesn't come close. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
